Mexico City. The former general director of Legal and Government of the then Benito Juárez delegation, Luis Vizcaíno Carmona, obtained the provisional suspension granted to him by a district judge, against the order of connection to trial and preventive detention that a judge of the City of Mexico in July of last year for common law crimes committed by or against local public servants.
The former official promoted a new amparo trial on November 15 of this year before the First District Court in Criminal Matters in Mexico City, against the judge for Control of the Accusatory Criminal Procedure System Attached to the Judicial Management Unit Number Eight of the Superior Court of Justice of the capital.

The judge scheduled the incidental hearing for next November 27 at ten hours and fifteen minutes, where he will determine whether to grant Vizcaíno Carmona the definitive suspension.
In the process he faces for illicit enrichment, the former official, who was arrested at the end of July 2022 by elements of the investigative police in the Del Valle neighborhood, was allegedly part of the so-called real estate cartel in Benito Juárez, since the Prosecutor’s Office General of Justice accuses him of having received 69 million pesos from two real estate companies between 2015 and 2016, by carrying out possible extortion and alleged exchanges of favors outside the law, with which would have managed to enrich itself by subjecting the mayor’s office to its own interests.
He had already been prosecuted for illicit enrichment
In August 2022, he was prosecuted for his probable participation in the crime of illicit enrichment, for which in September 2023 he received a sentence of four years of house arrest from the capital’s judicial authority, through an abbreviated procedure.
At that time, the spokesperson for the Attorney General’s Office (FGJ) indicated that the delegational public servant between 2009 and 2016 tacitly accepted his responsibility, for which he remained in police custody and had to cover a financial penalty.
For this reason, on that occasion the control judge ordered the seizure of the bank accounts of two of his companies and a building located on Insurgentes Sur Avenue, Guadalupe Inn neighborhood, in the Benito Juárez mayor’s office, of which he is the owner along with another former public servant of Benito Juárez – Nicias Aridjis, the first sentenced for illicit enrichment, in an abbreviated procedure – and five apartments located in a building on Petén Street, Narvarte neighborhood East.
